While last year may have been a struggle for both Baylor and Florida basketball, the expectations are pretty high for both teams coming into the 2019-20 season.
That’s why the Baylor/Florida match-up for this season’s Big 12/SEC challenge presents a lot of potential.
First, Baylor is 5-1 in the challenge while Florida basketball is 4-2 all-time in the event, 3-1 under head coach Mike White.
There are other parallels.
Florida finished last season 20-16 overall and 9-9 in the Southeastern Conference. Baylor, on the other hand, finished 20-14 overall and 10-8 in the Big 12.
